Newspaper Page TextTHE MOKNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JULY 23, 1901. NO ATTEMPT TO RESUME IDLE PLANTS OP THE STEEL TRUST WERE NOT STARTED UP. Strike Bulletin Issued by the Amal gamated Association Xo Farther More Toward Arbitration. PITTSBURG. July 22. The expected did not happen today at "Wellsvllle or Mc Keesport. At Wellsvllle the rumored Im portation of men failed to materialize, and at McKeesport the expected attempt to resume at the Dewees-Wood tube plant was not made. As both points, which are considered by each side to be strike cen ters, remain In statu quo, neither of the parties to the controversy have made any decided move. From the other Important point, Duncansvllle, conflicting reports are received, and the result of the quiet struggle going on between the American Steel Hoop Company and the Amalga mated Association Is still uncertain, with the company's chances probably better for winning In the end. Late this afternoon the Amalgamated Association Issued its first strike bulletin from the general offices. The bulletin gives an outline of the conditions prevail ing, and reproduces abstracts of Presi dent Shaffer's recent addresses at Wells vllle and McKeesport. Jn the most prom inent part of the bulletin is printed the warning words: "Don't drink, especially If the trust tries to break the strike by importing nonunion men. Don't believe any one who says the mills will be closed forever or taken out of the community If you don't go to work." Further on are the words: "There were not enough men in the country to run the mills before the strike, so all you need to do to win the strike is, don't work. Enjoy your Sum mer shut-down. It means more work next Winter. This is not the time for mill work, anyhow." Absolute denial was made by President Shaffer of a story that a delegation from the Vandergrift mills of the American Sheet Steel Company has been in confer ence with him. He said he had seen no one from Vandergrift, and knew nothing of their presence in Pittsburg or Mc Keesport. Whatever is being done by the Amalgamated people at Vandergrift is being kept s0 quiet at present that few of the general officials of the order are ac quainted with the status of affairs. There has been no change in the arbitra tion or mediation movements, so far as the officials of the association are aware. The hope is general among these officials, however, that a way will be found to bring about a settlement of the difficulties. President Shaffer has not yet declared that there was no possibility of conces sions on the part of the Amalgamated As sociation. When he was asked for his opinion on this matter today, he- replied that he was unable to answer the ques tion. Friends of the president who have talked to him on this line express the firm belief that If the proper steps were taken the manufacturers would find the associa tion In a conciliatory mood and ready to meet any reasonable proposition consist ent with honor They say the whole tone of President Shaffer's remarks Is Inclined toward peace 1 he can secure It honor ably. At McKeesport It was reported that the company would bring in new men this morning. Hundreds of strikers were parading the streets, watching the rail roads and even watching the river bank, because it was said the men would be brought in by boat up the Monongahela River. The stations of the Pittsburg, Vir ginia & Charleston Railroad on the oppo site side of the Monongahela River from McKeesport were also picketed for possi ble arrivals and passers-by on the street were stopped and questioned when occa sion seemed to Justify It, but no reason for any drastic measures was found. The popular feeling Increased so steadily that at 3 o'clock this morning Chief of .Police Morrlssey, who had marshaled his entire force, ordered the groups of men to disperse. Throughout the excitement the strikers acted with decorum, and at no time In any part of the city was there any disorder. If the compapy should at tempt to bring new men in it Is not un likely that the strikers will make resis tance. The Amalgamated people are great ly elated over the fact that they succeed- . cd yesterday In organizing a lodge among the employes of the National Tube works. The formation of this lodge may extend the conflict to that plant The situation this morning throughout Pittsburg and Allegheny in the strike district was about the same as Saturday. i "o effort was made to run any of the plants. It Is said that the Amalgamated . Association has arranged that in the event , of an effort being made to start the Painter Mill plant nonunion, an alarm ' will be sounded and over two-thirds of the strikers will be on hand In a few minutes prepared to resist stoutly any move by the management. Commenting upon the possibility of the National Tube Company discharging the men who Joined the Amalgamated Asso ciation yesterday. President Shaffer said today: , "If the company should discharge these , men we shall have to protect them, and as we consider discharge under these cir cumstances grounds for enforcing article 19, section 35, we should have to request the reinstatement of those men and their recognition as members. If that were not done we should be compelled to call out all Amalgamated men working in the plants of the National Tube Company." In reply to the question, "In organizing these men had you planned to draw them into the strike?" the Amalgamated pres ident replied: "As our last conference proposition to the manufacturers practically limited the strike to the sheet, tinplate and hoop companies for the time being, it was not our purpose to organize these men to in volve the National Tube Company." Among the manufacturers there was the same general silence preserved regarding ine situation ana. concerning prospective plans for opening the now idle mills of the three companies. From Monessen tonight came the follow lng: "There Is suppressed excitement here tonight and It is likely trouble of a seri ous nature will result Inside of 24 hours. The National Tinplate Works were started up In full this morning at the regular time. Shifts are working. Super intendent Donner has placed a heavy guard aroud the mill, and if any effort Is made to Intimidate the workmen, there certainly wm oe bloodshed. The organ izers have been able to get a few men away, bul It Is said their places were quickly filled. To a reporter, several of the men said that if the tin mill men came out, they would have to leave this part of the country. They cannot work at any thing else, and say they won't Join the unlort. An ironclad agreement with W. H. Donner. now president of the Union Steel Company, specially states that the mill must be run nonunion, otherwise the company cannpt use his patents." Tie Mill Did Not Start. . CLEVELAND, O., July 22. Contrary to the announcement of several days ago, the hoop mill that the United States Steei Corporation has been equipping In this city during the past week to manufacture cotton ties did not begin operations to day. Vice-President Ward, of the Amal gamated Association, declared that the company did not have a sufficient number of experienced men to operate the mill. Officials of the company declined to dis cuss the matter, or to say when an at- ? tempt would be made to operate the mill. It is understood, however, that it Is pro- 4 posed to begin work next Thursday morn- ' lng. Schwab ReiHsed to Talk. NEW YORK, July 22. President t Schwab, of the United States Steel Cor i poratlon, refused today to make any re- ply to President Shaffer, of the Amalga mated Association, or discuss the strike situation.

The resolution was adopted by an almost unanimous vote. More mines, with the aid of the United Mlneworkers, resumed operations In the Wyoming Valley today. Committees from the striking stationary firemen waited upon the superintendents of the coal companies and asked to be reinstated. At some of the mines the committees were told that the places of the strikers were flllede.

Hall, of this city, told of a visit to the Fosburgh house at 4 o'clock on the morn ing following the shooting. He found a pair of worn black half hose with white dots on the grass near the Robert S. Fosburgh. edge of the road. Further on he picked up a single sock. The half hose were lnden tlfled in court by witness as those he found. The tracks of bare feet were also noticed in the road. They disappeared at a bend In the road further on. Dr. W. W. Schofleld, who was called to the Fosburgh house shortly after the May Fosburgr. shooting, described the wounds found on the heads of Fosburgh and his father. Police Officer George B. Chapman gave an entirely new bit of evidence. He stated that he found a number of matches of a different make from those used by his family in a bedroom, of his house and near the doorstep outside on the next morning after the Fosburgh shooting. Witness said that his wife declared that there must have been burglars In the House that night. Matches found In the Fosburgh house were similar to those found by Mr. Chapman. The examination of James Fosburgh, a brother of the accused man, then began. Witness said he was awakened by a ter rible shriek, coming apparently from his father's room He rushed up the front stairs, turning on various lights as he ran. He was met at the head of the stairs by his sister-in-law, who screamed: "Your father's gone crazy." He brushed her aside and went on to his sister May's room. Sho was lying on the floor. The electric lights had been lighted. . ''There was only one thing that made an impression on me," he said, "that was A Ik Xmflhi . Hv. y.M ttMSUffl.V . ' St. Paul Pioneer Press. POOR OLD. KANSAS! ITS SO HOT DOWN THERE THAT THE CORN IS AC TUALLY POPPING ON THE STALKS. the fact of my sister's body lying on the floor. Something had to be done, I saw, so I sild 'Get towels and ammonia.' I did not wait to see If this was done, but got ready to start for a doctor. I saw brother Robert come into the room behind father. He was staggering and when in the middle of the room he collapsed and fell to the floor." Witness then described his trip for a doctor. He did not know that his sister had been shot until he returned. Young Fosburgh said he had heard no shots in the house that night and therefore could not say how many shots "had been fired. HANGED TO A PARK TREE. WoHld-Be Negro Murderer Lynched In a West Virginia Town. ELKINS, W. Va., July 22. William Brooks, a negro, was lynched tonight, being hanged from the limb of a tree in the City Park. Brooks shot andi fatally wounded Chief of Police l,ly, who sought to arrest him for creating a. dis turbance. The negro was chased half a mile by a crowd and captured. He fought desperately, but could not get away. Brooks was handed over to the Sheriff to be taken to the county Jail. Just as .the Sheriff and the negro reached the prison doors a mob of men at least 4w strong surrounded the officers and de manded the prisoner. The Sheriff and guards refused and made resistance, but to no avail. Brooks was seized and rushed through the streets to the City Park. When the park was reached the men who were leading Brooks told him to walk up under a big shade tree In the center of the park and prepare to die. The negro could not speak and seemed almost Insensible to what was going on. The rope was drawn up and in a few minutes the body swung from the tree lifeless. Then the mob disappeared. Hundreds of men and women came later and viewed the body. The body was still hanging at a late hour tonight. To Help Revenue Raiders. MONTEREY, Tenn., July 22.

To Be Spoken In California of Its Patron Saint. San Francisco Bulletin. That Is a noble maxim which commands, "Speak only good of the dead:" The max im, however, carries with it the sugges tion that in speaking good of the dead, eulogy should recognize the superior claims of truth. If this rule be disregard ed, truth requires that eulogy be rebuked even at some disregard of the primal maxim. The principal danger arising from gifts of very rich men to religious, educa-. tlonal and charitable Institutions lies in the temptation such gifts hold out to ben eficiaries to subordinate the claims ot truth to those of eulogy. "To err Is hu man; to forgive, divine," is the text from which these untruthful eulogists speak. One charitable act is made to cover a multitude of sins. Death places a distinct limit on the speech of the living, but the most ardent admirer of the dead should not presume too far on the forbearance of the lovers of truth. At the tenth annual commencement of the Leland Stanford Junior "University the president of that Institution said of the founder: "I need not repeat the story of Mr. Stanford's life. He was long the most conspicuous public man of Califor nia. Ho was her war Governor, wise and patient, and respected of all men before his railroad enterprises made him the wealthiest citizen of the state. His wide popularity, the Influence, personal and po litical, which he acquired, did not arise from his wealth. Wealth, influence and popularity sprang alike from his personal qualities, his persistence, his Integrity, his long-headedness and his simplicity, which always kept him in touch with the peo ple." This panegyric from a beneficiary of the gifts of Leland Stanford to the State would be permitted to pass without com ment if It did not tend to establish the impression that a shower of gold so con fuses the public mind as to cause It to for get what it knows. The people of Califor nia who are at all conversant with public affairs know that Leland Stanford did not possess the qualities of character, that, according to trie president of the Stanford University, his popularity was based ifp on. Enough Is known of the history of the construction of the Central Pacific Rail road to stamp the assertion that Mr. Stan ford came by his millions honestly as un- truei As president of the Central Pacific Railroad Company he was well acquainted with the devices by which more than one hundred millions of dollars were diverted Into the pockets of the builders, while the public, through the National Government, was paying the interest on the bonds Is sued for the construction of the road. The restitution that was finally made In the form of an endowment for an Institution of learning was Inspired by the untimely death of Mr. Stanford's only son. It is notorious also that the corruption which disgraced Calif ornla's political conventions, Legislatures and, to an extent, Its Judi ciary, can be traced to the operations of the company of which Leland Stanford was president. Still, Mr. Stanford had personal qualities that endeared him to his associates. The more Judicious of his friends would gladly have permitted facts with which thousands of Callfornlans are familiar to be burled In a grave of which the Leland Stanford Junior University i . should bo ihe headstone. But the de mands of truth are Imperative. The Idea must not go abroad that an act of gener osity may rewrite the history of the State or change the public estimate of the char acter of a man who for years debauched Its politics. 1 Fatal Hotel Fire In Iowa. OTTUMWA, la., July 22. Fire broke out In the Laclede Hotel early today and caused the loss of one life. The property loss was nominal- John O'Connor, of Mt. Pleasant, was suffocated.

The Traders' Grain Company, of this city, stopped pay ment today, ind It Is said the liabilities amount to 1150,000. The failure was caused by the advances 4n both corn and wheat, aided by the heavy buying orders of coun try customers. o J Wsz. 3r SPy' PLAN FINALLY ADOPTED MINISTERS AT PEKIN AGREE UPON INDEMNITY PAYMENT. The Scheme Contemplates the Entire Liquidation of Both Principal and Interest by 1040. WASHINGTON, July 22.-The State De partment received a dispatch today from Commissioner Rockhlll at Pekln announc ing that a plan for the payment of the Indemnity to the powers by the Chinese Government finally has been adopted. The amortization of the bonds to be is sued will begin in 1902, and the plan con templates the entire liquidation of both principal and interest by 1940. It is ex pected that China will raise 23,000,000 taels annually. This sum Is to be used to pay the Interest on the bonds and to form a sinking fund for the ultimate liquida tion of the principal. Mr. Rockhlll's dispatch was very brief and did not go into any details. From the best knowledge of the general basis upon which the Ministers have been working, however, the State -Department officials have a general Idea of the conclusions which have been reached. The total amount of Indemnity which China will have to pay will aggregate 450,000,000 taels and bear 4 per cent annual Interest. It is estimated that of the 23,000,000 taels which China Is to pay the first year 18, 000,000 taels will be required for Interest and that 5,000,000 taels will be applied to the sinking fund. Each year the Interest will grow less, and the amount set aside for the sinking fund will Increase, so that by 1940, when the bonds are to be liqui dated, the interest will be almost normal. The sources of revenue for the payment of Indemnity, as understood here, ere to be derived from the gabelle, or salt tax, the maritime customs and the llkln tax, a portion to-be taken from each. The principle of the payment of the Indem nity having been determined upon, what remains now Is to devolve a plan for its execution. This 16 not regarded as a serious problem. The bonds guaranteeing the Indemnity are to be distributed among the various powers on the basis agreed upon heretofore. There will be no in ternational guarantees, but it is said that the governments to whom the bonds are alloted will see to It that the purchasers will be safe In their investments. State Department officers apprehend that there will be no trouble on the part of the var ious governments in disposing of these securities. Bandits In Pc Chi Iil. LONDON, July 22. A dispatch from Pekln says: Disaffection caused by banditti Is prevalent in 30 districts in the cen tral part of the Province of Pe Chi Ll. The local officials are either disinclined or unable with the force at their com mand to suppress the troubles. Ll Hung Chang, as Viceroy, Is too busy to attend to provincial matters. The troops sent against the banditti showed sympathy for them, many of them having formerly been soldiers. They are better armed than the troops. In a recent conflict 100 soldiers and officers were killed. The troops of Yuan Shlh Kal, Governor of Shan Tung, are the only ones that can be trusted to act. Tho result of dispatching some of them to quell -the disaffection Is not yet known. Even if successful, in one district an uprising is likely to occur as soon as they depart for another. Complete pacification will be extremely difficult. Official appeals are constantly reaching Ll Hung Chang. TUBERCULOSIS CONGRESS. Four Hundred Foreign Delegates At tend First Session at London. LONDON, July 22. The British con- gress for the prevention of consumption was opened today by the Duke of Can bridge, president of the congress. After the Lord Mayor of London, Frank Green, Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal and others addressed the congress, Lord Lister, one of the British vice-presidents of the congress, in a few words con veved the thanks of that body to Pro fessor Koch, of Germany, and the other scientists for their attendance, saying they knew the enemy they had to deal with and that It was not only the pre vention but the cure of consumption that the congress hoped to effect. A tele gram was read from King Edward to the Duke of Cambridge, as follows: "I pray you heartily to welcome for me the eminent men of almost every na tion who have assembled under your presidency and express to them my earnest hope that the result of the de liberations of the congress will ) be to assist the world In mitigating this dire disease, which has baffled the most dis tinguished physicians for so long." Prior to the adjournment of today's ses sion of the congress the Duke of Com brldge announced that a gift of 120,000 would be forthcoming for the purpose of establishing the first public tuberculosis sanitarium as soon as the recommenda tions of the congress concerning Its es tablishment had been formulated. Four hundred foreign delegates attended to day's opening session. They include a number of Americans and Canadians. Several Ambassadors and Foreign Min isters, the former including Joseph H. Choate, the American Ambassador, also attended the opening ceremonies. Commons Behind In Its Work. NEW YORK, July 22. The Government whips are finding great difficulty In per suading the rank and file of the Conser vative and Liberal Unionist parties to be constant In their attendance at Westmin ster, says the London correspondent of the Tribune. There is still a lot of work to be done before Parliament can be pro rogued and unfortunately for the Govern ment, the business of the House of Com mons has been seriously Interfered with by the illness of the chairman of the com mittee. In the absence of that Important official. Mr. Balfour feels that he cannot proceed with the committee stage of the education bill with any prospect of pilot ing It through the mass of amendments. Only a half dozen government measures have so far received the royal assent and It is inevitable that several which are waiting to be dealt with will have to be abandoned. The present state of legisla tion In the House of Commons calls for a revision of the rules of procedure and In addition some fresh arrangements will have to be made so as to prevent any future deadlock In committee. London's Honor to Mllner. NEW YORK, July 22. A dispatch to the Tflbune from London says: One of the most Interesting events of the week will probably be the conferring of the freedom of the City of London on Sir Alfred Mllner. in the Guild Hall, to morrow. So large an attendance Is ex pected that It has been arranged to con duct the ceremony in the great hall. A platform Is being erected there for the accommodation of the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs and Aldermen. It will be like -a scarlet eminence looking down on a sea of blue. The Common Councilmen will sit in the body of the hall. After Sir Alfred Mllner has been introduced as a fishmonger by the Prime Warden and Wardens of that guild, the Lord Mayor will speak some words of welcome, and the High Commissioner will then be form ally admitted to freedom, the certificate of which will be Inclosed in a gold box. The festive side of the ceremony will take the form of a luncheon at the Man. slon House. .An English Strike Decision. LONDON,. July 22. The House of Lords has reversed the decision of the Appeal Court dissolving the injunction rendered August 30, 1900, by Justice Farewell, in the High Court of Justice, which enjoined General Secretary Balla, Of the Araal- A JUDGE'S WIFE She Suffered for Years and Felt Her Case Was Hope lessCured by Pe-ru-na. Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from 1217 West 33d St., Minneapolis, Minn., as fol lows: "I suffered for years with a pain In the small of my back and right side. It In terfered often with my domestic and social duties and I never supposed that I would be cured, as the doctor's medi cine did not seem to help me any. "Fortunately a member of our Order advised me to try Peruna and gave it such high praise that I decided to try it. Although I started in with little faith. I felt so much better in a week that I felt encouraged. "I took It faithfully for seven weeks and am happy Indeed to be able to say that I am entirely cured. Words fall to express my gratitude. Perfect health once more Is the best thing I could wish for, and thanks to Peruna I enjoy that now." Minnie E. McAllister. The great popularity of Peruna as a catarrh remedy has tempted many people to Imitate Peruna. A great many so-called catarrh remedies and catarrhal tonics, are to be found In many drug stores. These remedies can be procured by the druggist much cheaper than Pe runa. Peruna can only be obtained at a uniform price, and no druggist can get it a cent cheaper. Thus it is that druggists are tempted to substitute the cheap Imitations of Pe runa for Peruna. It is done every day without a doubt. We would therefore caution all people gamated Society of Railway Servants, and Organizing Secretary Holmes "from watching and besetting" the Great West ern Railroad stations and approaches with a view of inducting nonunionlsts to re frain from taking the places of Taffvale Railroad strikers. This action of the House of Lords restores Justice Farewell's Judgment. The House held that It was not the Intention pt the Legislature to prevent a trades union from being sued If, through Its officers, it were guilty of Il legalities. Assets of Lelpzlger Bank.

The No. vostl reports that the capital of the, Cop per Company, In which, according to the Novoe Vremya, United States Senator W. A. Clark has Joined with Kieff capitalists, will be 20.000,000 roubles, of which Kleff will supply 3,000,000 roubles and Moscow 4,500,000. The Ascension mines, near Zmpl- latinsk, are among the richest.
